As it turns out, I have a talent for building things where I've been sticking custom built homes on the side of this big rock we call Beech Mountain. We have a ski resort here that seems to be a favorite destination for the southern skiier. I kept building my model aircrafts until they got to the size that they became "real" aircraft. I'm presently working on getting a four seater in the air this winter that you can keep up with on my web site.
I've thought alot about you all over the years and wondered where everybody ended up, so thank you for putting up this site and bringing back some wonderful memories of Cypress Lake.

Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina

Canada, British Virgin Islands, St. Lucia, Dutch west Indies. I constructed a dwelling for the president of Carnival Cruise Lines and over the years have been about everywhere they go.

Fly cross country to Las Vegas in an aircraft that I built and time it to arrive at dusk to see all the lights.

Lit DuPont, Burt Rutan, Sir Richard Branson, All the Nascar drivers on a regular basis. (being so close to Charlotte most of them have houses up here and one of my clients is Tony Stewarts manager so we get to go to all the races). Everybody at Oshkosh Airventure annually.

Become a work-a-holic.

Aviation...This is the most beautiful place to fly!!
